Roy Jones Jr. vs. Willie Williams: Latest Fight Details, Comments and Reaction

Boxing legend Roy Jones Jr. will step into the ring again at age 46 in 2015, agreeing to a bout with Willie Williams slated for March 6.

ESPN.com's Dan Rafael revealed the details Tuesday, noting that the fight will take place in Concord, North Carolina, at the Cabarrus Arena and Events Center.

The report featured what Jones had to say about his next competitive clash against his 36-year-old opponent:

"

What I am doing is staying busy because Marco Huck said he will fight me in the fall. I ain't no spring chicken and I need to be properly prepared to fight Huck. If I get that fight it will probably be my last stab at (a world title) and then I'd call it a day. But I want to make sure I am ready as can be.

"

After a run of three consecutive losses, Jones has rebounded in recent years. He has rattled off five consecutive victories, capturing and twice successfully retaining the German World Boxing Union Cruiserweight title belt.

Jones' comments imply that Williams (14-8-2) is a bridge bout so that he can stay sharp and in shape ahead of a prospective fight with Marco Huck, the 13-time defender of the WBO Cruiserweight title.

Despite already establishing an extraordinary legacy as a four-class champion, Jones still has the desire to prove himself even at this late stage in his career. He may be trying his luck in longevity, but at least Jones is still fit enough to go out on his own terms.
